Angela Oakley, PMHNP, brings a deep commitment to holistic mental health care at Serenity Mental Health Centers in Phoenix, AZ. With a diverse background in intensive care, emergency medicine, and family practice, Angela has over a decade of experience helping patients navigate both physical and mental health challenges. This foundation gave her an integrated view of the mind-body connection, which she deepened through her recent post-master’s certification as a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. Angela is passionate about supporting patients in every dimension—mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual—to help them become the best versions of themselves.

Angela’s approach is one of thorough, compassionate care. Known for her commitment to learning and evidence-based practices, she believes in collaborating with patients and other healthcare providers to ensure well-rounded, effective treatment. Angela’s patients can expect her full attention, knowing she values their journey and works tirelessly to address their unique needs. Her time as a family nurse practitioner taught her the importance of integrated care, where each patient’s overall wellness is supported by a collaborative healthcare team. Angela’s experience in family medicine means she understands the value of connection and continuity in mental health, especially for patients who may be new to psychiatric care or have complex needs.

Outside of her work, Angela finds balance through family time, nature, and physical activity. Her daughters are her pride and joy, with two horses that keep the family busy with equestrian show jumping. Her three dogs are also beloved members of the family, with one already serving as a therapy dog in her ketamine clinic and another in training. Angela’s love for yoga, the ocean, and the outdoors helps her recharge and stay centered.

Angela’s compassionate care is grounded in her commitment to being her best self for her patients and loved ones. She strives for peace at the end of each day, dedicated to delivering care with kindness, patience, and understanding. Angela looks forward to providing Phoenix residents with comprehensive mental health support, including ketamine therapy, TMS, and a patient-centered approach that makes every individual feel heard and valued.
